. >> that is right, exactly, not only a second term for president obama but also a second term for vice president biden, and gloria, you had a chance to sit down with him, how did he seem? >> well, he seemed very much in the zone, joe biden has been through a lot. he is full of gaffes, and bore the brunt of a lot of jokes about him. but what i would have to say is that his relationship with the president has grown closer. and the joe biden that i interviewed yesterday, which we're going to release after the president is sworn in on monday, the joe biden that i heard on friday was somebody who has found his role in this white house. he is the closer. he is the guy who cuts the deals. he is the person who does the things that the president really doesn't like to do, which is get into the nitty gritty with congress, because after all he spent 36 years there. >> absolutely, gloria, much more on the interview. >> it will air on monday right after the president is sworn in. and -- >> good work. >> and the white house just doesn't want anybody to get in the way of that big moment. >> all right, don't go

barack obama was right. the money drives the nra. it is why nra want more guns in schools and not less. profits above all. even kids' safety. karen, short and to the point says nra sells guns from fear. they will never be sensible. we're tweeting at bpshow. you can join our conversation. >> bill: i think randi people have to realize about today's nra, it is really the lobby for the gun manufacturers. >> right. frank luntz has done all of these polls of nra members and frankly, my union, there are many members of my union who are nra members. >> bill: i'm sure. >> we should not demonize nra members but the nra is doubling down and acting as an adjunct or as a direct solicitor of the gun manufacturers. not -- and you can see from luntz's polls most nra members want sensible gun rules and regulations. and you know, this is -- you know, the debate that the moment somebody talks about gun regulation, we're talking about getting rid of the second amendment is ridiculous. it is a smoke screen. it is like don't we have regulation for driving? don't we have regulation for almost anything that c

" starts right now. finish arthel: president obama lays out his battle plan for the next four years. welcome to a brand new hour of "happening now," i'm arthel neville in for jenna lee. jon: good to have you here, i'm jon scott. the president unveiled a sweeping liberal agenda during yesterday's inaugural address, launching his second term with a call for action on some hot button issues like global warming, immigration reform, gun control and gay rights. let's talk about it with syndicated -- i'm sorry, syndicated columnist and fox news contributor charles krauthammer, who calls the speech an ode to liberalism and big government. >> remarkably, there's an absence of any mention of the economy, of deficits, of what outsiders would say is the great challenge of our time heading into over a cliff, a real cliff of debt into sort of a greek future. there is nothing of that in this speech. obama has zero interest in that, and this was a declaration that his interest is to restore us to the liberal ascendancy of 60 years that reagan stopped. he gave us these three decades, and clinton in

during the inauguration of president obama today. a float featuring the late civil rights leader was part of the inagural parade. and the president took the oath of office by placing his hand on a bible once owned by king. >> it was a beautiful day for the bay area. we are going to continue to see those who chilly temperatures, overnight. patchy fog in the north bay valleys. we are expecting plenty of sunshine as the go for the afternoon taking a look at futurecast plenty of 40's and '50's. as we go for the overnight hours we could see some morning lows. freezing temperatures. by noon, we will see 50s and 60s indicated by the green. santa rosa, 28 to degrees. 30's in napa. mid-40s in san francisco, daly city. 39 degrees for fremont. and for the afternoon, it is going to be really nice. 66 in redwood city. millipede is, and at the 60s for the delta. low 60s for the east bayshore. downtown san francisco 64 degrees downtown san mateo and we are expecting 60s for the north bay. through petaluma 56 effective in novado. high-pressure is in control keeping things to dry and mild but a system tha

of nazis, a lot of people, gun rights people think that obama is the next hitler and they need guns to protect themselves from his tyranny and i can't stand the p.c. stuff, it drives me crazy. and seinfeld had the soup nazi and now when you say it everyone thinks they're comparing them to gassing people and murdering 6 million jews. i think that what bob schieffer's point was if we can overcome such huge things, certainly, obama should be able to stand up to the nra. the nra owns congress and-- >> nra is-- >> what does it matter, also the civil rights act, could pass a civil rights act, surely you could stand up to the nra. i don't think he was comparing anybody to hitler. i think any more than he was comparing them to passing the civil rights legislation thing. difficult thing, difficult thing, but this is actually less difficult than these things over here. >> jon: there was a lot of polling out this week, cal, not often noticed among it was the gallup poll approval of the n.r.a. and the president. >> the media always turned to government as a first resource instead of a last reso

day as well. >>> happening right now in washington, d.c., thousands of people are in washington, d.c. along with tori campbell for president obama's inauguration for his second term. we're out there live right in the middle of the music, the pomp, the circumstance, thousands of people are out there as we look at these live pictures of some of the military musicians right there. testimony tori campbell is covering everything for us. is it getting crowded now? >> reporter: actually, the crowds are thinning out here. that's because i think people are heading into the mall, dome, inauguration and getting ready to celebrate. everyone's decorated. they are wearing obama hats, keeping warm, getting some food. because once they are inside, they won't be able to leave until the ceremony is over. inside there's already some musical entertainment going on. they started performing about a half-hour ago. during the ceremonies, some big names will be part of the entertainment. beyonce who sang "at last" during the obamas' first dance four years ago. she will be singing the national anthem and ke

. but they are expected momentarily. >>> yesterday around -- right around the time that president obama was being officially but privately sworn in at the white house for his second term, the sunday swearing in, and in keeping with the constitution, has to happen on the 20th, while that was happening, there was a meeting taking place in washington a few blocks away in the ballroom of the washington hilton. it was a meeting called the obama legacy conference. thousands of obama campaign staffers and volunteers gathering on inauguration weekend to essentially map out what comes next. what comes next for this enormous organization that they built over the last few years to win the president's reelection, and which now having done that is looking to keep working on something else. organizing for action is what they officially rolled out at that conference yesterday. it's the new iteration of the president's campaign operation. it is a tax-exempt group. it can accept unlimited donations. it does not have to disclose its donors, although the president's new organization says it will. it says the main p

in about six hours from now. zoraida. >> all right. thank you very much, john. president obama better get all of his partying done tonight. his second term is in full effect already and that means the potential for great achievements, but if history is any indicator, the second term is where things can get messy. it's not like he wasn't warned. >> i'm more than familiar with the literature about presidential overreach in second terms. >> president barack obama's victory dance is about to become a dance against destiny. >> if we look back, some really great examples of really big things being done in second terms. but recent history, there is the potential for real disaster. >> i did not have sexual relations with that woman. >> according to polls by the gallop organization, second term presidents often end up with second-rate approval numbers. just ask trent duffy, former president secretary to president george w. bush. >> major combat operations in iraq have ended. >> a president's approval ratings who dropped 25%. >> if poll numbers drop down below 50, you will see the white house press

to do. >> all right. let me ask you about the health care, the obama care. first of all, are you -- is nebraska going to participate in the health care insurance exchange subsidy? are you going to be a player in that from your side? >> we are going to do the federal exchange, not the state exchange because it's too costly. secondly, i'm opposed to the medicaid expansion because we can't afford that. i am very, very concerned about this health care -- new health care law. it is already going to cost me millions in my current budget to implement it, effective 200014. >> why is it costing you millions? what's the source oaf that expense? >> the source of the expense is the current growth in the medicaid program. once it begins this 2014 they'll try to have a number of people sign up for the current medicaid program. in my state, that'll be about $72 million. >> and are your businesses going to essentially take the penalty rather than the mandate and put their workers on to the so-called exchange? >> you know, i don't think we know the answer to that question yet. there's so much unc

president obama made history by acknowledging the struggle for equal rights for gay and lesbian americans and made it part of america's civil rights tradition. here's more of what the history books will record. >> our journey is not complete until our gay brothers and sisters are treated like anyone else under the law. for if we are truly created equal, surely the love we commit to one another must be equal as well. >> today's inaugural poem came from richard blanco, a cuban american who says negotiating his identity as an american and as a gay man is the wellspring of poetry. he said he has lived the american dream as being named the fifth inaugural poet. here's part of the poem he read today to the president and to the world. >> we head home through the gloss of rain or weight of snow or the plum blush of dusk but always, always home, always under one sky, our sky. and always one moon like a silent drum tapping on every roof top and every window of one country. >> richard blanco joins me now. what a day this must have been for you. the first latino american to read a poem at this inaugu

the battle for voting rights isn't over. here's the president. >> obama: our journey is not complete a citizen is not forced to wait for hours to exercise the right to vote. >> michael: now that he has been inaugurated, do you think voters going to the ballot is at risk. >> i think it is. the republicans are a minority party. they got the minority in the presidential and senate and over all house races they're not working with the demographic roots that are growing in this country, which are largely latinos. and it will make it impossible for them to break into that voting block. the only way they can win is by changing the rules. i know i can cite some great philosophers, but gary trudeau has been citing the politics that we'll just change the election by changes the votes and you can see it in dunes bury. there was no photo i.d. that was the way to diminish the vote of young people and african-americans and other minorities. what it did was so enrage the african-american community they got out and voted. they said we're not going to take this and they came out and the vote was good

pressure for president obama has come right out of california. california is going to play a role in this absolutely. there's no question. >> scott, i have a question. >> i would add if you look at -- if you look at some of the congressional races in this past election where you have ami berra, first generation indian-american knocking off dan lungren. and raul ruiz in the coachella valley. both of those elections sent a strong signal where california is on this issue. >> scott, do you think the first bill will come from the senate or the house? who's going to act first? >> well, at this point i think the house is being very cautious and in some ways they're saying, you know, why don't you go first and see what you can get through? and i think that they don't want to stick their necks out too far. but what's been happening in the house in the last week or two with the sandy relief passing and also the deal to avoid the fiscal cliff, it really, those things had more democratic votes than republicans, and a lot of sensitive, you know, that happens to john boehner too many times his

: oh, right. mccain. do you have any evidence that barack obama himself is somewhat diverse is being discriminatory in his hiring practices >> the "new york times" ran this photo the other day showing the president with a group of all white men advising him in the oval office. >> jon: first of all computer enhanced. there's a black guy right there. now i'm not saying that balances everything out but that is a black guy. and there is another black guy who appears to be running the meeting. still, fair point. there aren't any women in the photo. >> this photo shows the president surrounded by all male advisors although the white house says top aide valerie jarrett is hidden behind the men. >> jon: that's just valerie jarrett's style. here she is at the '08 inauguration. here she is at tianamen square. here she is with buzz aldrin on the moon. she's like a living where's waldo. here she is behind waldo. you know what? i'd like to hear the president's excuse for this. actually, i can hear the president's excuse for this >> i'm very proud that in the first four years that we had as divers

journal" poll said that the country is headed in the right direction as president obama's new portrait is released is had approval is at 52% and likeability is at 61%, but only 29% say he is working effectively with congress. and today, there's more conflict. ponding to the president's declaration that he won't negotiate over the debt ceiling, republicans backed down. he this raised the borrowing limit, but just for three months. and if democrats don't agree to a budget of deep spending cuts by april, they cut off lawmakers paychecks. >> why should the american public pay elected officials if they do not do their fundamental right and passes a budget. >> it's been a long time since we have seen a positive to dee fine a second term. >> the bush second term was plagued by iraq and scandal. amid the preparations for celebration, the new obama term starts with a buth confrontation. >> white house is trying to put a bright spin on it saying that the republicans have backed down from what the white house calls the threat to hold the u.s. economy hostage. >> thank you, steve. we will have con

[applause] our journey is not complete until our gay brothers and sisters are treated like anyone else under the law. for if we are truly created equal, then surely the love we commit to one another must be equal as well. >> in making those comments, obama became the first u.s. president ever to use the word "gay" in an inaugural address. he also give a nod to voting rights, immigration reform and his recent push for gun control. >> our journey is not complete until no citizen is forced to wait for hours to exercise the right to vote. [applause] our journey is not complete until we find a better way to welcome the striving, hopeful immigrants who still see america as the land of opportunity. until bright young students and engineers are enlisted in our work force instead of expelled from our country. our journey is not complete until all

with us. we're coming right back. >>> president obama made equality for women and immigration reform focal points in his inauguration speech today. i'll ask now's terry o'neill and clarissa martinez what they expect. and later president obama gave a strong progressive speech today. now it's the republicans turn to make what move. will they be cooperative or will they obstruct? my commentary on that is ahead. don't forget, you can listen to my radio show at sirius xm radio monday through friday noon to 3:00 p.m. share your thoughts with us on facebook and twitter using the #edshow. we're coming right back. >>> we, the people, still believe that every citizen deserves a basic measure of security and dignity. >> thanks for stay with us tonight here on "the ed show." a big part of the president's speech focused on the policy position that got him reelected. >> the commitments we make to each other through medicare and medicaid and social security, these things do not sap our initiative, they strengthen us. they do not make us a nation of takers, they free us to take the risks that make this co

about the numbers is that president obama's approval records right now is exactly the same, i think it is the same as bush's was as he began the second term 49% approval. interesting parallels, the republicans are just as unhappy with president obama as democrats word with president bush in 2005. there are parallels between parties by giving the other guys a chance. maybe that is a cause or a result of splits media today. it is worth noting the opposition has been consistent the party's over the decade. what would be most interesting would be if the caller mentioned the president had the agenda. one thing i should have mentioned in the list of things on the agenda would be seen through his health-care law. it is a very important that he was the president and this to see the implementation when disco in 2013. there are a couple of court challenges on the contraceptive mandate and a couple of challenges on who is allowed to claim the exchange credit and things like that, all of them will get a very different results because president obama is in power rather than mitt romney. >host: t

-- there you can see it right there, the problem was in that first line. do solemnly swear. >> obama thought there would be a pause after his name. >> roberts thought it would be after do solemnly swear and it was the next line "with faithfully execute the office of the united states" that roberts so uncharacteristically became flustered and messed it up twice. they redid it in the map room of the united states the next day and see if the third time is the charm right now. >> you think they rehearsed it, went through and practiced it? >> no, they don't. >> you know john roberts. >> i do. there is no way there was a rehearsal here. >> really? >> that has not been the tradition. this is an event steeped in tradition. i am certain that the e-mail with the card was not misplaced this time. they will certainly know where the breaks are, but perhaps i'll be proven wrong. i don't think they will have rehear rehearsed. this is a one time only. >> hold on. jessica yellen our chief white house correspondent. we're only a minute or so away. what's going on? >> hi, wolf. some of the president's family a

emphasize though, is you know there are a lot of people left and right who have criticisms of barack obama today. the same was true of dr. king before he became a martyr, and almost a deity that everybody bows to. i remember democrats who were for vietnam didn't like him. conservative black ministers didn't like him. obviously there were lynch mobs ready for him in the fast. even the radical young black activists made fun of him for being too gradual. thank god something pure and positive can be transmitted to future generations. >> john: kristal tom brought up president obama and he does fall short of the ideals. there was a picket sign in dc saying king had a dream and obama has a drone. do you think these critiques are fair or would dr. king approve of putting drones in soldiers and keeping them out of harm's way. >> he presented this country with a great deal of hope, and concrete change. i think that's just my opinion i'm not speaking as a journalist but i think there is a lot to look forward to hopefully in this second term. >> john: do you agree tom? >> yes, i mean, i think dr. king

starting, wow. all right, this week, obama proposed sweeping laws intended to reduce gun violence. we've talked about the ban on the sale of assault weapons, instituting a background check on all gun sales. so the obvious question i guess is -- will these measures work? roland, to you first. >> this is the fundamental problem we've talked about several times. this should not be a gun control conversation, this should be a gun violence conversation. if you only focus on guns, if you only focus on laws, you're not dealing with one of the issues. how many times have you heard mental illness brought up? how many times have you heard talk about the cuts when it comes to city, county, and state budgets? that's one of the issues, as well. how do you deal with the anger management of people out there who decide to say i'm packing so, therefore, i'm going to shoot you because i don't like what's going on? that to me -- this is a one-dimensional conversation. this is going -- this is going to be the death if you will of a real substantive plan. >> he's already shaking his head. >> i'm going agr

senator from illinois who opposed raising debt ceiling that. is right. barack obama scolding republicans for linking p spending cuts to raising debt ceiling himself voted against raising the debt ceiling. here is what the anointed one said in 2006, said leadership means the buck stops here, washington is shifting burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and our grandchildren. er america has a debt, and a failure of leadership. americans deserve better, i, therefore, intend to oppose the efforts to increase american's debt limit so he is doing what he said shouldn't be done. but in doing so is demonstrating his morale superiority. the second thing we saw today is on full display he said republicans were sus spishus about social security and government support for the elderly and spending money on medical research, then, about programs aimed at making sure kids in poverty are getting enough to eat. now this, snot only deeply dishonest it's a gross distorgs. a lecture coming from a man responsible for a massive increase in poverty during his presidency. a third thing we sa

-year-old child on my father's shoulders. all right, barack obama and his daughters and family making their way to the reviewing stand. how did he do? >> i thought it was a trivial speech in serious times and i was disappointed. this city is an armed catch because we are afraid of terrorism and there are armed soldier everywhere and he did not mention terrorism. he talked about very important domestic policy issues like gay page but did not mention terrorism at all and used the phrase "peace in our time." he made no serious effort. >> you talk about threats to democracy you didn't think that was good enough? >> no i do not. he did not mention in a serious way the debt monster eating us alive. he just ignored that as if it were an imaginary thing. that is a real problem. >> big spending cuts did not evidence itself. >> promising more and more. >>neil: did he practice more support if the type of entitlements that will continue to grow. >> he promised delivering in generalities and the gifts for the interest groups and nothing to control the debt mantra that will eat america alive. he sh

? >> with the exception of gay rights, there is very little that is significant in the obama agenda that could not have been proposed and was not proposed by moderate republicans in the late 1990s and early 2000's. newt gingrich sat on the couch. the health care plan is based off the 1993 bob dole and lincoln chafy health care plan, and you can go on and on down the list like that. that's what i thought was interesting to e.j.'s point. this was not really a speech about what obama wants to get done next. it was about making a philosophical case for what obama and america has already done. somewhat what i think is unusual is an enormous amount of it and -- >> already one day in. >> already unusual one day in. i want to make this sweeping statement early on here. >> please do. that's what we trade on the show. >> it will be dedicated to consolidating the achievements of his first term. getting universal health care done was a big deal, but it hasn't happened yet. it will happen almost entirely many his second term sxshgt same can be said for dodd frank, and the same can be said for the mooumt put into pl

show must go ooooooon. -- [cheers and applause] -- wait, wait, #thump. all right. so i missed the whole press conference. what happened? >> lock and load. >> obama lays out his again control plan. >> the unprecedented assault on your second amendment rights. the second amendment is meant as a final firewall against tyranny. >> he is not a king or a czar. >> going after our guns. >> chipping away at our freedom. >> barack obama came in peace to rip our constitution to pieces. [ laughter ] >> jon: (bleep) what did he do? let's look at the president's opening statement. >> kneel before zod. >> jon: oh, that is bad. [ laughter ] that is bad. what dictates did king bama decree. >> president obama asked congress yesterday to pass new laws ins -- instituting universal background checks and bans on assault weapons and high capacity magazines. >> jon: two things, one, those measures enjoy, i believe, majority support in the latest poll. and two, when tyrants want something they they generally don't ask their legislative bodies if that would be okay. they tend to proceed what is the word i'm look

interrogation? barack obama was wrong and bush was right his claim to fame wouldn't have happened, if bush didn't have the the insight, is it ego? >> to support what howard says, any means necessary, i support those interrogation techniques. if we can use those techniques against bad people that want to do bad things to americans and you know, hell, i'll hold them down myself. i mean, it saves lives. it's one of many pieces of kit in a toolbox and regardless of whether or not you want to face up to reality and realize that you do have to use extreme measures against these terrorists, it just has to be done, and thank goodness, good people are willing to do some dirty work. >> sean: but we also have to put some perspective on it, howard, and this three people gotten ha gotten-- got enhanced interrogation, which led to the courier, and to bin laden. i give him credit for, and liberals seem not to be able to hear that, which seems to be connected to this reaction to the movie. >> sean, we have a very short memory as americans. if this was the months directly after 9/11, nobody would have a problem

right now. >> hi, anderson. before all of the pomp and circumstance begins tomorrow, president obama will start his day here at the white house as he so often does, he'll wake up bright and early, work out, get in his presidential daily briefing on national security matters and then have a nice family breakfast before it all starts. he'll head to the church across the park from the white house, st. john's episcopal for the traditional inauguration day church service and then up to the capitol where we find dana bash. >> thanks, brianna. i am on the west front of the capitol and this is where you're going to see that iconic image of the inauguration, 24 hours from now. this platform will seat about 1600 people and it is really the hottest it ticket in town. you're going to have members of the president and vice president's family, also going to have members of the joint chiefs of staff, the supreme court, governors, senators, house members, actually hearing that some house republicans are not going to be here, even though this is traditionally a bipartisan -- actually a nonpartisan ev

deal. >> peter. >> yeah. >> put president obama into a historical context. >> oh! right. >> in 20 seconds. >> go! >> yeah. well, we're still around. and i think the best they think is to refer back to the second inaugural of lincoln and to imagine a great war to free slaves that end slavery in america. that one day, a dissen dent of -- well, we think he was, actually. that's right. an african-american would become president is just astonishing. nobody could have predicted it in a period when african-americans didn't have civil rights. so i think that's -- >> also within our lifetime. >> yeah, right. >> go ahead. >> i'm just saying that the pivot -- because if you were to look back and see what has shaped so many inaugural, so many elections all along, it's the questions of race and slavery. you know. the one that came closest to blowing up is 1877 when hayes came in and they think the civil war is going to break out again because the two parties are so close. >> for some reason, republicans and democrats didn't get along back then. can you imagine that? >> my gosh. i could sit and

sasha and malia obama grow up right before our eyes. malia is now a high school freshman and her little sister, sasha, is in her first year of medical school -- not medical school. middle school. she didn't grow up that fast. >> maybe one day. >> maybe. never know. she's smart enough. nbc's kristen welker is live at the white house with a look at the first daughters. hello, kristen. >> reporter: hey, alex. well, good afternoon. it is amazing how much they have grown, though, and those who know the family well say these next four years will bring new challenges and some new perks. >> and now, the president of the united states. >> reporter: the night belonged to their father. but when malia and sasha stepped onto the stage at grant park election night it was hard not to marvel at how much they had matured. >> even i was struck on election night this year just seeing how much they have grown from four years ago. >> reporter: they were so young when they moved into the white house. sasha just 7 and malia 10. now at 11 and 14, even the president recently remarked at how much has changed for

term. and on the right, republicans moan and grown and say that -- groan and say that obama is demeaning in the way he deals with house speaker john boehner. hold on, says columnist rockman. we expect too much of obama he says because in the united states, we subscribe to the quote, unquote myth of the imperial presidency. other transformational democratic presidents such as fdr and lbj, rockman says, have substantial democratic majorities in both the senate and in the house to enact their landmark legislation. obama in contrast has had to work with a narrow democratic majority in the senate and with an opposition party, the republicans in control of the house for the two years since january 2011. well, what about ronald reagan? president of the united states two successful four-year terms. on the domestic front, he enacted a major economic recovery package followed by an overhaul of social security. and in his second term, reagan gained a major tax reform. on the defense front, republican president reagan again with the help of the rity presided over a major increase in the

, chuck. i think you're right. a lot of obama care is administrative. it is just the grinding details of administrative government. >> building it essentially. >> but the other thing is the republicans are going to try to attack medicaid, chris, and medicare, but medicaid in particular. if they drain and slash funding for medicaid in the regular budget negotiations that chuck is talking about, that will make implementing obama care that much harder because a lot of the money to expand coverage for the uninsured comes from medicaid. >> okay. i think immigration is my biggie for this year. >> that's the legacy thing for him. >> that's easy to do. >> i think so, too. i have never understood why it's so hard to do immigration. >> but it is now easy to do. now it's easy. that's right. now it's easier. look, deals don't get done in washington unless there is political benefit for both sides. >> right. >> and on immigration republicans know they have to get it done. it will get done. that's the easiest thing on the president's agenda. >> let them put the teeth in it, get the issue off their

in a confrontational way sets up barriers for him. that was something that reagan was fantastic about. right now, obama has fractured capitol hill that not much is getting done. that is the challenge. >> we have to get out of here. he says the shrinking few do well while the growing group have trouble making it. and it isn't cleverly disguised. he won i get that. ramesh, thank you very much kevin and mark. top golfer complaining that he has a personal tax rate of 62%. because of the tax hike enacted in his home state of california. of course he is right on track. we have the answers next up. would define you as an innovator. to hold more than one patent of this caliber... would define you as a true leader. ♪ to hold over 80,000... well, that would make you... the creators of the 2013 mercedes-benz e-class... quite possibly the most advanced luxury sedan ever. see your authorized mercedes-benz dealer for exceptional offers through mercedes-benz financial services. for exceptional offers i've got two tickets to paradise!l set? pack your bags, we'll leave tonight. uhh, it's next month, actually... eddie

impeachment. >> reporter: dave people who support gun rights say president barack obama's support for gun orders threaten their rights. since the shooting in newtown connecticut many are vowing to make stricter gun laws and they will make an executive order meaning congress has no say. texas is starting to begin impeachment procedures to stop the president and vice- president joseph biden is expected to put through a new ban on weapons and universal background checks. but the president says it is not the same as taking citizens guns away. other gun advocates are creating fear and it is a good way to drum up business. >> even the slightest hint of some sensible responsible legislation in this area fans this notion that somehow here it comes and that everybody's guns will be taken away. >> reporter: and a new pole shows some tougher gun laws and i will break down the numbers when i see you next. kyla campbell in washington ktvu channel 2 morning news. >>> we are now learning secretary of state hillary rodham clinton will testify about the u.s. consulate in libya. that is according to the fo

is the assistant attorney general of the civil rights division in washington, dc, he was nominated for that position by president obama and sworn in in october of 2009 and we are all the lucky -- we are all very lucky that that happened in october of 2009. tom has spent his entire career in public service and on protecting the civil rights of our most vulnerable people. tom actually joined the civil rights division as a young lawyer and while he was there he prosecuted some of the most significant cases in the country. lawyers in the civil rights division get fanned out to places in the country to handle cases in mississippi and alabama and california and all over and tom was one of those people. he was sent to texas to handle a very significant hate crime case when he was a young lawyer that involved a gang of white supremacists that went on a killing spree and ended up shooting 3 people and killing one when he was a young lawyer working in the civil rights division. he later served as a top deputy for attorney general janet reno, he was special counsel to ted kennedy and ser

to tune in right now. it's fantastic. >>> first lady michelle obama is well-known for her fashion. some people love the way she dresses and others, well, not so much. and yesterday i spoke with pulitzer price winning columnist who is not one to hold back, john, about the first lady's fashions. take a look. i know you said the first lady is stylish, but you have written in the past here. "more often her clothes are simply lovely frocks, worth admiring in slide shows and picture books, but not worth discussing. fashion is fun. but the nonstop attention to mrs. obama's wardrobe isn't fun. it's exhausting. it's too much." >> i think for me what has happened is that her clothes have been discussed with this kind of feverish fuerber that normally we reserve for celebrities. for people walking down the red carpet and the celebrity on the way to starbucks. i think when it translates to the first lady, there's a lot of fun with that, but i also think it sort of drains away some of the more substantive things that she could represent for the fashion industry. >> many believe, though, that michell
